Show Notes
The Shameless Plug is never late. Nor is it early. It arrives precisely when it means to, roughly halfway through the on-sale cycle of the latest issue of Empire. To which, after all, this show is dedicated to shamelessly plugging. And once again, the Fellowship of the Plug — Chris Hewitt and Empire editor, Nick de Semlyen — have assembled in the Podmines of Moria for that plugging. You have Nick's microphone, and Chris' copy of Adobe Audition, and if the deluge of Lord Of The Rings references hadn't already clued you in, the duo are here to talk about issue 450 of Empire, which is dedicated to celebrating 25 years of The Lord Of The Rings: The Fellowship Of The Rings. Nick regales us all with tales of reuniting the four Hobbits and Sir Ian McKellen, virtually collecting the rest of the Fellowship, plus Cate Blanchett, Liv Tyler, Peter Jackson, Philippa Boyens, and getting Andy Serkis to write a piece for us. It's not all LOTR, with tales of Raimi-wrangling, a bit of Gore, and a Gollum impression you will never be able to unhear. Simples. Enjoy!
